Lets just say they were far from precision. We all know how to live with the slop, and you will too, after 5 minutes of running. While on the subject, the wording on the twist grip dial plate is far from accurate. You will learn to live with that too.
One thing that wears badly (or shears off) is the pin that goes through the bottom end of the vertical shaft. Come to think of it, I’m not sure the ’55 even had a replaceable pin—another reason for slop.
